andythedrummer Posted April 15, 2005 CID Share Posted April 15, 2005 My downloads on mydirecway.com's site are a whopping 75kbps. My UPLOADS however are around 200-300kbps. WTF??!?

php Posted April 15, 2005 CID Share Posted April 15, 2005 welcome to the forum the DirecWay speed test is horribly inaccurate... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andythedrummer Posted April 15, 2005 Author CID Share Posted April 15, 2005 thanks... Still... my upload speed seems kind of up there. As fast as it is, you'd think my download speed would be a little higher. Has anyone else encountered this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aggr3 Posted April 15, 2005 CID Share Posted April 15, 2005 NO....I've never had an upload that fast.... But welcome to da forum.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andythedrummer Posted April 16, 2005 Author CID Share Posted April 16, 2005 Apparantly, according to tech support, I'm on the "new" satellite. They've only been using it for a few weeks, which could explain the upload speed. Engineering is supposed to be "on it".. we'll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fikester Posted April 25, 2005 CID Share Posted April 25, 2005 welcome to the forum the DirecWay speed test is horribly inaccurate... The test is running... This test may take 1-2 minutes to complete. For accurate results, please avoid all Internet activity until the test is finished. .. ** Speed: 773(down)/298(up) Kbps ** (At least 23 times faster than a 33 Kbps modem) Finish. 298 up.....this must be a running total !!
